By Erik Satie. By Erik Satie. Arranged by Flavio Regis Cunha. 20th Century,Broadway,Film/TV,Holiday,Musical/Show. Score. 12 pages. Flavio Regis Cunha #6079185. Published by Flavio Regis Cunha (A0.597450).

"Je te veux" is a song composed by Erik Satie to a text by Henry Pacory. A sentimental waltz with erotic lyrics, it was written for Paulette Darty, whose accompanist Satie had been for a while. The text consists of two verses and a repeated chorus.

The song was registered with SACEM on 20 November 1902, but Roland Manuel argued it had been composed in 1897. 

Satie composed various versions of the "Je te veux" waltz: for piano and voice, for an orchestra of brass instruments, and full orchestra (including a trio). The piano and voice version was first published in 1903. The composer later arranged the work for solo piano (of which this transcription is based on), adding a middle section between the second chorus and the second verse.

The melody was performed to the public in 1903, at La Scala, then a popular cabaret in Paris. In 1925, the song was recorded with Yvonne George as singer. "Je te veux" was also recorded by Mathé Altéry, Régine Crespin, Gigliola Negri, Nicolaï Gedda, and Davide Bassino, and later by sopranos Jessye Norman, Marie Devellereaum and Angela Gheorghiu.
